The War God's Homecoming

Chapter 27 He Is My Fiancé

"They better come..." Sharon spoke again.

"Mrs Knight, if this isn't resolved by tomorrow, you can go then," Billy said. "Plus, aren't we supposed to be going to the Knight family's birthday celebration soon?"

“Dad, I don't want to go to Grandpa's house. I don't wanna go there..." Tasha shook her head vigorously against Billy's shoulder as tears welled up in her eyes.

"Tasha, I promise that no one will dare bully you again this time." Billy gently patted Tasha's back. “I don't wanna go there!" Tasha choked up.

"Tasha, be good!" Harleen felt a pang of heartache seeing his daughter like this and took her from Billy into his arms. "Mom and Dad will accompany you this time, don’t be afraid, okay?"

"Tasha, didn't they say that you didn't have a dad? This is your chance to show them that your dad i back." Felicia chimed in from the side. "Tell them not to talk about you anymore."

Tasha stopped crying and said determinedly, "I'll tell them that I have a dad and he's a great hero!" "You hit me!" Beatrice shouted out after a pause. "You, bastard! Howe dare you! I'm gonna skin you!"

As she finished the words, another two crisp sounds rang out again, and Beatrice's cheeks immediately swelled up on both sides.

"From today on, if you dare to say Tasha is a little bastard again, I'll make sure you never speak again!”

"You..." Beatrice opened her mouth to shout a few more times but was scared by Billy's sharp eyes and involuntarily closed her mouth.

“Hey, haven't you gone too far? We're right here.” The young man next to Beatrice spoke up.

"If you don't want to get beaten up too, it's best for you to shut up!" Billy scolded in a low voice. "Bastard!" Zeph slammed his teacup hard on the table and angrily said, "Fletcher, who is he? Are you guys trying to rebel?"

“Father, he's Tasha's biological father, Billy Gardner.” Fletcher took a deep breath before responding He couldn't help feeling bitter inside. He originally wanted to discuss with his father today whether they could arrange a job for Harleen in Ozin so that their family could move back there together. But it seemed it was all over.

Hearing Fletcher's words made Zeph even angrier.

“Are you the guy who ruined Harleen back then!?" Zeph asked with fury.

"What audacity! Do you dare show your face in front of us? We don't welcome you here; get out right now!"

Everyone glared at Billy with angry eyes wishing they could rush forward and take some bites out o him. For them, Billy had ruined their chance to climb the social ladder. Otherwise, the Knight family would have been successful by now.

"Dad, let's go. I don't want to stay here..." Tasha trembled as she saw Zeph's angry expression. "Tasha, it's okay. I got you. Dad will take you away soon." Billy patted Tasha's back.

"So you're that bastard!" Beatrice gritted her teeth and shouted again after catching her breath. "Beatrice, enough!" Harleen scolded angrily. "Grandpa, what happened back then was my own choice. It's not Billy's fault! If you don't welcome him, we can leave. But I hope you won't call Tasha bastard anymore in the future! Billy is Tasha's biological father and my fiancé. We'll get married soon!"

“With that, everyone looked over at them.
